The best move I've ever done was the one to the house we're in now...DH sent me and three month old DS away for the weekend, not a single item packed (I had no idea we were moving). I arrived home two days later to a new house that was 80% unpacked Go team hubby and helpers!
I plan on moving this way every single time now! DH is not as keen on the idea!!

Areca, it sounds like when we moved into this house- I had to work (report writing time, of course so DP did most of it himself, with help from his sister and brother I think. Wish it would happen like that this time!

The Following User Says Thank You to Mod-Nomsie For This Useful Post:

Does this mean that the purchaser has sold their property and settlement is in 30 days? I asked because you said it was conditional on them selling their property.

The only additional advice I would offer is
- pack up the kids and pets and have them stay with someone the day of the move, get extended family members / friends to assist with moving all your backyard furniture, BBQ, swing sets, toys and garage items as it is easy for them to do without needing your input.
- put your other half in charge of dismantling, moving and reasembling the larger items and then you can concentrate on packing boxes, their placement and unpacking in the new house.
- hire a cleaner and carpet cleaner to clean your old house once you have moved.
- when finished make sure you have a nice cold refreshment or 2 in an esky to enjoy and
